"The last great story of the age of exploration by sail, finally brought to life."
In the late 18th century, a web of remarkable people converged on Nootka Sound, brought by wind, current and the events that were quickly shaping the world. Four men emerged as key players who would shape the future course of the Pacific Northwest—Royal Navy officer George Vancouver, merchant vessel captain James Colnett, Spanish Navy officer Juan Francisco Bodega y Quadra and the Nootka tyee Maquinna. Drawing from historical journals and records, their stories are brought to life: whether explorers, soldiers in battle or a boy destined to rule over a land and its people. With the backdrop of the American and French revolutions, epic voyages criss-cross the globe in a series of swashbuckling adventures, not as fiction, but as the events actually occurred. These are the Wolves of Nootka— ambitious, capable but often wildly unpredictable men who fought nature and one another to stake their place in history. Alongside is the She-Wolf Hestoquatto, whose story can finally be told, two-hundred and fifty years later.
